In Case You Had Any Doubt About The F-35's Success As The New Allied Fighter

This picture posted by @JimmySky from the F-35 Program Office suggests Lockheed has no illusions about where the success of the new fighter lies (sorry for the glare, but the guy is at work using his iPhone).

Lockheed promises the F-35 will be four times more effective than contemporary fighters in air-to-ground combat, three times more effective in reconnaissance and suppression, with better range, improved support, and equal costs.

Regardless of which configurations allies choose or how long it will take to get them, the F-35 likely has too many countries on board, that have invested too much, to ever let it fail.
